O caso de gestão estudado analisa a avaliação diagnóstica implantada na Coordenadoria Regional de Desenvolvimento da Educação 15 (CREDE 15) da Secretaria Estadual de Educação do Ceará (SEDUC) denominada AVALIA 15, e possui a seguinte pergunta norteadora: Como avançar no processo de elaboração da prova do AVALIA 15, na correção e análise de seus resultados? O objetivo geral desta pesquisa é: compreender o processo de elaboração, correção e análise dos resultados da prova. Além disso, pode-se mencionar como objetivos específicos: i) descrever a elaboração, correção e análise dos resultados da prova do AVALIA 15, ii) refletir sobre a qualidade do teste e da análise dos seus resultados e iii) propor ações que possam enriquecer a avaliação diagnóstica proposta pela CREDE 15. A partir da análise realizada nesta pesquisa, percebe-se que o processo de coleta e interpretação dos dados dessa avaliação diagnóstica precisa ser aperfeiçoado. Para tanto, utilizaremos como metodologia a pesquisa documental, por meio da análise da prova e dos resultados obtidos no AVALIA 15. Para desenvolver esta pesquisa, trabalhou-se com o referencial teórico compreendido pelos seguintes autores: Hoffmann (1996) e Luckesi (2006), que discutem o conceito de avaliação e sua importância no contexto escolar; Perrenoud (1999) que reflete sobre o papel da avaliação como orientadora da ação. Bonamino e Sousa (2012), que apresentam as três gerações básicas da avaliação no Brasil; Horta Neto (2010), que faz uma retrospectiva das avaliações externas no Brasil e analisa questões sobre esse tema. Cota (2001), que em seu estudo debate a experiência do Sistema de Avaliação da Educação Básica (Saeb). Viana (2010), que analisa o papel das avaliações externas no Brasil. Machado e Alavarse (2014), que discutem a qualidade na educação básica atrelada às avaliações externas. Além de Machado e Freitas (2014), que analisam a relação entre a gestão escolar e as avaliações externas. / This thesis is developed in the Professional Master in Management and Education Assessment of the Center for Public Policy and Education Evaluation of the Federal University of Juiz de Fora.

Furthermore, Limpopo Province has been amongst the bottom three provinces concerning Grade 12 results for the past years specifically since the introduction of the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) in 2014. The Capricorn District of Limpopo Province has shown a decline in Grade 12 results from 71.6% to 69.9% in 2016. However, there are certain schools in this district that are high performers while some are low performers. Also, the Sekhukhune District has shown a decline in Grade 12 resulted from 63.9% in 2014 to 51.1% in 2016. The purpose of this research study was to investigate and analyse the factors influencing Grade 12 results in low performing and high performing secondary schools in the Capricorn District, Limpopo Province. The objectives of this research study were to identify factors contributing to the high performance and low performance of grade 12 learners in the Capricorn district and investigate the perceptions of teachers and principals with regards to the school’s academic performance.
